Recall that the rumors surfaced after several photos were posted by Alfano on her Instagram page. In January, she shared a photo with the former Brazilian footballer, whom she ran into in a hotel lobby. Subsequently, she posted a picture posing naked in the shower, which fans speculated was taken by Ronaldinho.

Now, the Argentine has come forward to dismiss these rumors, stating that the photo with Ronaldinho and the shower picture are not connected.

“They (her fans) asked me because I had just met Ronaldinho. You see, people make things up. I took a photo with Ronaldinho in an elevator and everyone thought he had taken the photo of me. Actually, it was one of the girls at the hotel where I was,” Alfano stated.

Additionally, Ronaldinho is soon to become a grandfather, as his son Joao Mendes and his girlfriend are expecting a child.
